To put his indictment into perspective, Emmanuel Clase was paid over $6,500 per pitch in 2025 by.. his employer, the Cleveland Guardians.
Clase was paid $4.9m in 2025 in exchange for 746 pitches of work. He missed the last two months, but in 2026, his salary would have increased to $6.4m. Even an entire season of pitches would mean maintaining around a $6,500 per pitch rate.
It’s unimaginable why a closer coming off a Cy Young-caliber year would risk so much in future salaries for relatively small potato gambling bribes.
